New member here....trying to use these snap on caps on my Rallys. Anyone know what style lug to use with these 88-91 snap on caps? Help would be most appreciated! I tried regular bulge style ligs with 3/4" head size but not right.

Just got my 275/60's on a set of 8" rallys. How I also need some help with a budget 2/2 drop or 2/4 drop.....opinions? Thanks for the help.......long time lurker. Just want to make a sharp clean driver here, not a dragger.

Already looks like a sharp driver. Not sure about those snap on center caps you have there. By the way, welcome.

If I remember right, these snapped onto 7/8" head open ended lug nuts.

I have the GMC version of those on my truck..If I remember i had to bend the tabs a little to get them to fit securely. On the rear my axles were changed out to the 30 spline 88 and up version with what I think was a metric lug and they fit nice and tight.

Are you talking about ones with external threads for the plastic caps or just 7/8" style bulge lugs?

88+ would have been 14x1.5 lugs.

I'm pretty sure they were just 7/8" style bulge lugs without the external threads.
